Inniswood Metro Gardens

Event Details

Inniswood was once the 37-acre estate of sisters Grace and Mary Innis, who enjoyed gardening and wildlife. The Innis sisters' desire to preserve and enhance their gardens and woodlands for the enjoyment of all people resulted in the generous donation of their home and property to metro Parks in 1972.

Today, Inniswood is a 121-acre scenic nature preserve that is a continual source of inspiration for Central Ohioans and visitors of all ages. Streams and woodlands filled with wildflowers and wildlife provide a majestic backdrop to the beautifully landscaped flowerbeds, rock garden and lawns. Dedicated to the enjoyment, cultivation and preservation of nature's treasures, Inniswood boasts more than 2,000 species of plants, specialty collections of hostas, daffodils, daylilies and several theme gardens including the rose, herb and woodland rock garden. Visitors will enjoy the seasonal beauty of the gardens and natural areas as they stroll along the trails and paved pathways.
